Ja Morant

Ja Morant (elbow) will miss the remainder of the 2025-26 season due to his lingering elbow injury. He will receive a PRP (platelet-rich plasma) injection in his elbow to improve the healing of the ligament in his elbow.

With the Grizzlies essentially out of playoff contention, they will not take any chances attempting to bring Morant back this season. He has not played since January 21 and was limited to just 20 games this year, averaging 19.5 points, 3.3 rebounds, and 8.1 assists in his seventh NBA season. Morant is expected to make a full recovery and be ready for the 2026-27 campaign.

The Grizzlies say Ja Morant will be re-evaluated in another two weeks.

Morant will have been out for the last couple of months two weeks from now. It is unclear if he will return at all this season. Ty Jerome and Scotty Pippen Jr. will continue to be among the guards to see more run for Memphis.

The Memphis Grizzlies announced on Wednesday that Ja Morant is progressing in his rehabilitation from a sprained UCL in his left elbow but continues to experience discomfort and will be re-evaluated in two weeks.

Morant has not played since suffering the injury during a game against the Atlanta Hawks on January 21. While he remains sidelined, the Grizzlies will continue to rely on Ty Jerome, Cam Spencer and Scotty Pippen Jr.

The Grizzlies decided to keep Ja Morant after no team made a "serious offer."

Charania notes that "multiple teams were intrigued by Morant's talent but none were willing to make a serious offer." Morant is expected to miss at least another week with a UCL sprain in his left elbow.

The Kings, Heat and Bucks have been linked to Ja Morant.

The Grizzlies asking price has reportedly dropped for Morant. Memphis is not expected to work with Morant on his preferred destination. The Grizzlies are seeking the best deal for their organization.
